Sansah Kromah and Celebratory Songs of Resistance

Song Experiment is a monthly song lab hosted by Cassie Norton Welcoming unconventional approaches to song writing and song sharing.
Each month, a different artist and approach is featured welcoming surprise and collaboration.
To support the program, we will have a different set up than usual. The audience will be situated in a circle with the performers to facilitate participation, and we will set one table to the side with drawing and colouring supplies for the die hard doodlers.
This unique program will feature collaboration between Frances Greenidge sharing Sansah Kromah and Life to Liberation sharing uplifting songs of resistance.
Frances Greenidge, supported by Life to Liberation, will take us on an engaging musical journey introducing Sansa Kromah, a traditional Ghanaian song and folktale passed down through generations.
Through storytelling, rhythm, and audience participation, cultural educator and storyteller Frances Greenidge will share how she discovered this treasured song while teaching in West Africa.
Together, we will explore how a simple song can carry powerful messages of belonging, resilience, community, and the ancestral wisdom that connects us across cultures and generations.
Come ready to listen, sing, reflect, and discover the joy of keeping an ancestral tradition alive!
Life to Liberation is Nigel Barriffe (guitar & vocals), Wally Brooker (saxophones & vocals), and Cassie Norton (violin, vocals), a trio of musician-activists dedicated to presenting uplifting anti-imperialist and pro working-class songs in multiple languages and from a variety of genres and cultures.
